AutoCAD Inventor :: Grounding A Demoted Assembly And Losing Component Motion

Aug 2, 2013

I have a damper, I started it with the bottom frame member, which was grounded at origins when it was placed and I built the rest of the damper from there. All my constraints for blades and linkages and all related parts were able to move (with the damper held in place in "space" by the grounded frame member.

For parts list purposes I need all 4 sides of the frame to be one BOM item so I demoted the 4 frame pieces as one inseparable assembly.

After that all motion is lost in the main assembly and I can drag it all over "space" since I lost the bottom frame member ground point. I can ground the demoted frame assembly to lock it down, and drive the constraints to make the damper parts move to create positional representations.

I guess I'm just wondering if I'm not really supposed to be able to "move" components arbitrarily and I should just be driving the constraints all the time in the first place...I'm just not sure why the motion is lost after the initial ground point is lost.

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Turn Over Inserted Sketch

Aug 21, 2013

I made an assembly, placed a part and a sketch and constrained it, the first assembly file.

I want to turn it over, like in the second assembly.

The matemate and mateflush options in the constrain dialog box yield the same result, unlike in the tutorial:

AutoCAD Inventor :: Change The Parameters Of A Custom Ipart Inserted Into An Assembly?

Sep 10, 2013

Is it possible to change the parameters of a custom ipart in an assembly after it has been inserted, or can I only do an insert using AddCustomiPartMember?

In that case I simply remove the previous occurrence and insert a new one I suppose?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Simplified Part - Assembly Won't Merge Into One Seamless Part

Dec 11, 2013

I would like to simplify this assembly into one seamless part for FEM calculation:The assembly consists out of parts that, in reality, will be welded together. Due to their form, there is no way to place them exactly onto each other, therefore there are slight gaps between the parts:

Now when I try to merge the assembly into one part via "simplify" --> "create simplified part" and choose "single solid body with seams between planar faces merged", Inventor does not fill these gaps (even though it displays only one part in the bottom right corner of my window). Unfortunately, the remaining gaps brings "contact" problems in the FEM simulation.

how to close the gaps and really merge the assembly into one part?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Can Part Make Alterations To Other Part When Inserting In Assembly

Mar 29, 2012

I have a part that has protrusions. When i mate that part up to another part that second part needs to have cutouts/holes to receive those protrusions.

i mainly use it in sheetmetal parts. and use the rectangular protrusions on de contour to mate up with corresponding cutouts in the other sheet. this works with positioning and also makes for a nice weld spot/area.

But also for making holes to accommodate a mold pin used in custom punch dies. I want the intervening part to receive a corresponding (propperly tolleranced) hole automatically. Much like a bolted connection does.

same for parts like circlips. i want them to automatically generate the seat in the part it's mated to. Rather than using the axle generator.

Ofcourse one can place the parts and do an in assembly interpart projection and go from there, but i want the part to generate the (predifined) modification to the other part. It would save time and also reduces problems as the parts are moved about or even removed.

AutoCAD Inventor :: CoG Needed For Each Sub Assembly In A 2 Part Assembly On An IDW

Oct 3, 2013

I have a two part duct fire damper assembly. The IDW has the combined two part assembly, which I know how to turn the CoG on, so that it can be dimensioned. The problem is each piece will more than likely be hoisted separately so I would like to show the CoG for each piece, not the combined master assy.is there a way to do this?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Turn Off Sketches On Assembly Level?

Mar 25, 2013

I have a rule that turns off all work geometry and sketches of an assembly and all referenced parts and assemblies.

This rule is almost perfect.

When i run the rule. All sketches and work geometry are turned off. But sketches in sub assemblies remain visible in the top assembly. When i open the document of the sub assembly the sketches are off.

So what I see is a top assembly 'override' of sketch visibility inside sub assemblies

How can I turn off visibility of a sketch on a level higher?

AutoCAD Inventor :: Simulation And Temporarily Grounding Object

Oct 1, 2012

I have an assembly in a dynamic simulation and I would like to temporarily ground it for a few seconds until the motor within it spins up to maximum speed. I have thought about applying imposed forces on the assembly from several angles to prevent it from moving but ideally I would like to ground it or perhaps add brakes that dissapear after a specified time.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Turn Off Part In Drawing

Feb 27, 2012

Is there a way without deleting the part from the assembly to make said part not show up in the drawing? I need to be able to do this in the model and not in the drawing. Suppressing the part create a level of detail, but I would have to create new views in the drawing and I don't want to do that.

The part is used in some cases, but not in others so I don't want to delete it from the assembly.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Grounding & Constraining Tube / Pipe Routes

Nov 21, 2009

How do you fully ground & constrain Tube & Pipe Routes?

The problem I have is after I complete My runs & routes & I have to make a dimension change in my Route, my route does not stay vertical & horizontal, then I have to start all over, which is very time consuming

I'm sure there is a way to do this , just like in a regular sketch, you want all of your lines to turn purple so it is fully constrained , well with the routes they are not, only the very first line then the rest of the lines in the route are blue. I have tried to use regular constraints but I get the error message saying constraint already applied.

I have also tried to ground a work point from where the route starts from, & that didn't work.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Turn On Shadow - Just Get A Square Under Modeled Part

I have an assembly of  stair made from steel. There are lots of part the same. Is there a way to make a hole (inside assembly) to one and that hole would appear on all of them.

And another problem, how can I made cut (inside assembly) through more then one part so that would affect a part also when I open it alone.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Replace Assembly With Part

Oct 6, 2012

I am capturing a book-case design that I made long ago into Intentor.  I am almost finished, and I want to produce .dwg files and a bill of materials of parts that can be held.

For various reasons, almost all the items in the existing design are assemblies, and the underlying parts correspond more or less to half of physical parts that are contained inside a repeating cell.  I will almost certainly continue using this approach.

A simplified design that shows this is at [URL]..... in the file Display.iam

I created the file Slat.ipt by using derive (Slat.iam).

If I replace the Slat assemblies with the file Slat.ipt, the bill of materials will show parts that correspond to physical parts that I can hold in my hand, or list on an invoice.  I can do this with many, many mouse operations.

To make this modification quickly, I attempted to do Component -> replace on the Slat assembly.  I use this operation a lot to replace one version of an assembly with another.  When I do it with a .ipt file, the system pauses for some tens of seconds, then crashes.

A brute force work around is to use the mouse to do the replacement, essentially rebuilding the entire project in place.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Placement Of A Part In Assembly?

Sep 27, 2013

When i create a part in an assembly, i select a plane or face with the cursor, but then i select again a plane for the sketch.

Why this double selection, and what does the first selection do, if the part is actually sketched on the plane i selected in the second time.
